this thing fucking charged into my room and after fighting it for 10 mins and covering it with 1/2 a can of cockroach spray, its still moving :eh:
WTF is it? its the size of a cockroach (as ruler shows), it has teeth on its claws like a praying mantis, it has the tail like a silverfish and it has picers like a lobster (the shell on its back also lobster-like, but not seen on the pic cos i dont wanna fucking turn it over lol)!!!
any ideas? :eek:
i've seen a couple of those when i went to Poland to visit relatives and maybe even one or two here in new york but i still have no clue wat they are. they're freaky as hell too. use google and look it up somehow
Locust Maybe?
o mutant :eek:
no wings... mr.x is feeding me some BS on msn about them killing in 45 mins and being hell rare and laying thousands of eggs lol. could it be true? :eek:
no its definitly not a locust. i think thedy're called earwigs or sumthing. dunno gonna go look up more shit on googleOriginally Posted by DonTonberry
heres a link with a pic: http://www.ext.vt.edu/departments/en...s/earwigs.html
is that wat it is?
nop, the picers are linned with teeth and are in the front, while the feelers are at the back (like a silverfish)
hmm well i'm gonna go look up more shit. btw wat country and area of the country do u live in? this info might help me find stuff. i love researching with google
lol thanx mate, i'm trying to look for some info too.
i'm in perth, australia, and i'm in like the metropolitan area, not in the jungle or anything :P
edit: as much as i want to figgure out what this freaky thing is, i need to get to sleep cos i have an early morning test tomorow before school and i need atleast a few hours of sleep. hope i know what it is by the time i leave for school so i know what to do with it :P

It's One Of The Most Disgusting Bugs Ever. It's Feeds Off Shit And Likes To Present Itself As King Of The Colony. The Pincers Are Just For Show As It Is Scared Of Anything That Confronts It.
It's A Rare Insect Called "Kaoii".
umm no i don't think its a Kaoii. thats a complety seperate species.
but it might just be a darker form of rock crawler if it is then its hrmless i think. here check this out and scroll down to the Grylloblattaria (Rock Crawlers) section: http://www.myrmecos.net/insects/orthopteroid.html (the ones here are kinbda young so they're light colored but theres darker colored ones too so i dunno it might be this)
also since u said it look like a silverfish just check thi out but i doubt its one of these: http://www.myrmecos.net/insects/apterygota.html
if none of these are right then i'm out of educated guesses so just send the pic and an explanation to this site: http://www.whatsthatbug.com/index.html (i found it during my research and it seems very helpful at identifying bugs for people.
**MOST LIKELY**ooh and on that site there an area for crickets here: http://www.whatsthatbug.com/crickets.html (look at the mole crickets as your insect might be one of them since if you look closely they have little pincers, and tails, and pretty much everything you described i think this is most likely the one)
you should have taken the pic from the top since its really hard to make much out from the bottom
lol i'm becoming RZ's bug expert :P

And sees a whole lot more action in holes I bet.:wiggle:
they 're quite common around here, only way smaller...
lol that cuts deep Donton :p
That is one BIG ASS cockroach! One time I turned my amp on as loud as I could, and then a cockroach crawled on it so I was like, "Your goin down bitch." So I played all chords I could at once and it fucking exploded! No joke.
thats painfully accurate(
